Ladies Bloomers / Split Drawers. Victorian & Civil War underpinnings

Not to be confused by Amelia Bloomer, I think the name was a 21st century phrase. In the 1800s they were called drawers an later as pantalets. Drawers/ bloomers were worn crotch less for a lack of words, for easier bathroom use. That way you wouldn't have to pull your drawers down, making it easier to have your hands free for the rest of your clothing.

Some are made with a "V" shape or straight cut waist band. The legs in front are split from the waist band in front to the back. Both legs are sewn to the waist band. There is one row of lace at the bottom of the legs along a couple of rows of tucks for growth or shrinkage.

Drawers are long (ankle length) up till 1863 when the new fashion came into play, especially for the Union states. Then from 1863 on was what is called the short drawers / bloomers, (slightly below the knee cap).

Materials available are: Unbleached Muslin, Bleached Muslin (all white), White cotton blend and White on White Stripe.

Tucks (optional): can be added for looks and used to adjust the length of the legs for an additional cost.

Eyelet Lace (optional): can be added to the bottoms of the legs for looks for an additional cost.
